1 The Benefits and Challenges in Global Meteorological Satellite Data Sharing Ninghai Sun and Fuzhong Weng Center for Satellite Applica0ons and Research Na0onal Oceanic and Atmospheric Administra0on Presented at CANS 2014, New York University September 17, 2014 * Presenta0on contents are solely the opinions of the author(s) and do not cons0tute a statement of policy, decision, or posi0on on behalf of NOAA or the U. S. Government

2 Outline Introduc0on to NOAA satellite programs Benefits and challenges of global meteorological satellite sharing NOAA s efforts on global meteorological satellite datasets sharing Path forward Page 2

8 NOAA Satellite Program Partners Opera0onal Satellite Programs POES/JPSS, GOES/GOES- R, EUMETSAT METOP, DoD DMSP JASON, JAXA GCOM, COSMIC (GPS), MODIS, etc NASA Collabora0ve work on new satellite science, JPSS and Decadal Survey Missions Coopera0ve Ins0tutes NOAA s academic and research partners Interna0onal Missions Provide opportuni0es to leverage addi0onal satellite data (EUMETSAT, ESA, JAX, ISRO, etc.) Page 8

9 Global Meteorological Satellite Data Sharing Improved satellite products to observe climate variability and trends, and to support reanalysis projects. Improved detec0on of climate trends, by trying en0re inter- calibrated system to absolute SI standards and ensuring that any drie of the en0re inter- calibrated system truly reflects changes of the Earth System Improved u0lity (ease of use) of satellite radiances in NWP Improved accuracy of the global medium range and regional severe weather forecasts Reduced cost- benefit ra0o from an op0mized global system of satellites Fill the orbital observa0onal gaps lee by US satellite polar orbi0ng satellites Serve as backup for US satellites in case of our mission failure Page 9

10 Global Meteorological Satellite Data Sharing Increased numbers of research and interna0onal satellites and sensors Mul0- Spectral, Mul0 Sensor, Mul0 Plahorm (satellite, In- situ, Model) capabili0es More sophis0cated and NEW product applica0ons WITH integrated, merged, and blended products Climate from Space unique challenge Con0nuity of Observa0on Record Long- term reanalysis Calibra0on and inter- calibra0on among satellites Support interna0onal commitments (GEOSS, CEOS, GEO, WMO, etc.) Access to high performance and super- compu0ng resources Long- term Science Maintenance (Life cycle algorithm support) Drive to maximum efficiency Develop Enterprise- wide solu0ons Re- use and leverage capabili0es Repeatable, efficient and consistent processes Page 10
